Smoking.....really really really bad....HELP
 
Can someone please help me. I bought the car about 3 months ago and it was fine.

Normal rotary engine puff of smoke, when you first start. Now it's getting worse, it is puffing more and more smoke (oil, smells like a lawnmower) every day. It happens when i first start up, a little. Then after i drive for a little bit, it smokes alot on decelleration. Then i pull into a parking space and pit it into park, idle rases a bit then huge amounts of oil smoke consumes the car, can't see a thing. Fills up the interior.....very bad. I need help bad, really bad. I was looking into reman. engines, but very $$$$.
Another thing that may be causing this...my car idles really really high...usually at around 2200-2400 in park or neutral, and 1200 in gear. What could this be and how can i fix it?

Your oil control rings are shot. try rotaryresurrection.com if you are on a bidget

I figured that. Is there anything i can do in the mean time while i save for a reman. motor?

just keep the oil topped off. It will last quite awhile, I put over 40K on a mosquito killer before it shit an Apex Seal
